Beautiful house with very comfy beds
The rooms were perfect for 5 adults. All of the Christmas decorations made it extra special for our family Christmas celebration. Some of the kitchen supplies could use updates but we had just about everything we needed. A large serving spoon would be nice but that's such a small thing. The coffee maker didn't work on the pot side but I didn't take time to contact the owner because the single cup side worked. All the extra coffee supplies was such a nice touch. We would definitely stay there again when int the area. Thank you

Family Fun
We had a great time staying at this property with our kids and grandkids. It worked perfectly for every family to have their own floor with a bedroom & a bathroom. Loved the fenced backyard which was surrounded by trees. We made S’mores at the fire pit. Owner was quick to reply on any questions we had.

Great property for friends to gather
The place was perfect for us. Each couple had their own floor/bedroom/bathroom. We cooked every night and the kitchen had what we needed. There was wood ready for the fire pit. The ping pong and Pac-man games were a bonus! Also the host was very responsive. We’ll return!

Austin Family Golf Outing
We spent a few days in Galena, where we went to the rodeo, played golf, strolled the trails, and spent quality time with our family by the pool. Our time away from home was wonderful. The mattresses were incredibly comfy, and the property was beautifully decorated and hospitable. We had an amazing time. We are grateful to the owners of the property for sharing their lovely house.

July 4th Get-away
This Galena home was exactly what we were looking to get away from all the noise back home during the 4th of July. It was nice and quiet! The house was just like it was described, we all had our own bedroom and our dog absolutely loved the fenced in backyard as she had plenty of room to run.
The house was not only clean, but they also go above that by having a coffee bar and welcome basket, and even had dog bowls out for our dog! The coffee pot had issues the first day and after we let Joe know, he actually had a new one delivered later that afternoon! Talk about awesome!!
We definitely recommend staying here and we do planning on coming back to stay again! Thanks Joe!!

Family Get Away
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cozy Home! Our adult children and in-loves met us for a much needed get-away with quality time spent together. The house was perfect for three couples having their own bed/baths, fenced in yard for our dogs & playing games at the dining room table/living room TV. Joe was responsive and accommodating to our requests, house was clean, beds were super comfortable & the coffee bar/welcome basket were a hit! We enjoyed Galena, the Territory & surrounding area. Thank you!!

The house was located right in the middle of all the golf courses and a short drive to the Eagle Ridge Resort where our conference was being held. The house was perfect for 3 adult males, where we each had our own bedroom and bathroom. Great stay!

Galena Home
We were really happy the minute we pulled into the home and walked in. The home was clean and lacked nothing. We would have stayed for the month it was so nice. Great setup to relax with friends. We left to go into town a few times, but would’ve been just as happy staying there for the entirety of the vacation. We will definitely book this again.

Property was beautiful. Loved the huge windows. Plenty of room for the five of us in the well appointed bedrooms. A roaring fire and hot chocolate just added to the charm.

House was perfect! Extremely clean and very comfortable. We loved having the fireplace and the fenced yard was a treat for our dog. The owners have made this house a lovely escape. We would absolutely come back- would love to be there in a season to enjoy the screened porch and firepit!
